PCIe Gen6
Controller
High-speed interface design covering architecture, verification and implementation.
- WHAT'S MISSING
Learning VLSI is not the same as
engineering VLSI.
KNOW
- Concepts
- Commands
- Methodologies
DO
- Follow flows
- Execute steps
- Complete projects
PROVE
- Understand why
- Diagnose Problems
- Validate & defend results
- Make engineering decisions
What you make
You don't just learn.
You build.
One design. All the way through — from an idea to something real, with the decisions, reports and reasoning behind it.

High-speed communication subsystem covering TX, RX, clocking and verification.
CPU
Subsystem
End-to-end digital implementation covering RTL, synthesis, timing and physical design.
How it's made
Nobody starts with silicon.
They start with a sentence.
Every chip on the previous screen was built the same way, in the same order. Not magic - a method, and one you can be taught.
-
01
Spec
Decide exactly what the block must do, and what it must never do.
-
02
Architecture
Break it into pieces, and decide how those pieces talk to each other.
-
03
RTL
Describe the behaviour in code. This is where the design becomes real.
-
04
Verification
Prove it does what the spec promised. Still the single largest slice of the work.
-
05
Implementation
Code becomes logic gates. Gates become geometry that meets timing.
-
06
Signoff
The file that goes to the foundry. After this, it stops being software.
Bar length shows effort, against the heaviest stage
Why your work matters
The chip is small.
What it enables isn't.
- You work on A block
- It becomes part of A chip
- It powers Systems
- That impact The real world
01
Drones
From flight control to real-time processing, semiconductor systems make autonomous flight possible.
Blocks you'd design
- Sensor-Fusion Engine
- MIPI CSI-2
02
5G & wireless
Behind every bar of signal, a modem runs error correction and frequency transforms billions of times a second.
Blocks you'd design
- LDPC Decoder
- FFT/IFFT Engine
03
Automotive
From ADAS to autonomous systems, semiconductor compute and sensing are becoming central to modern vehicles.
Blocks you'd design
- Radar SoC
- Automotive Ethernet
04
Smartphones
High-performance semiconductor systems sit behind the processing, imaging and connectivity in your pocket.
Blocks you'd design
- Processor
- ISP
05
Electric vehicles
Every kilometre of range is a battery managed cell by cell, and a motor driven by silicon switching hundreds of amps.
Blocks you'd design
- BMS
- Motor/Inverter Controller
06
AI & data centers
Behind AI models and cloud services lies massive compute, networking and memory enabled by silicon.
Blocks you'd design
- NPU Accelerator
- HBM Controller
- WHO BUILDS IT WITH YOU
Crafted by engineers who have done it.
Not just people who know the flow.
People who have actually built it.
60+ Years of combined industry experience
◀THE HONEST PART▶
YOUR WORK DOES
THE TALKING
The Reality
We do not promise you a job. We cannot, and anyone who does is guessing. Right now, the industry mostly cannot tell what an individual engineer has actually done.
The Promise
We make you assessable. Put something real in front of an employer and let them judge it for themselves. We record your work from day one, so what you did is provable rather than asserted.
